Sorry, I didn't answer your question about steering response. Yes, the Z has an excellent steering response. It's not quite as good as the IX but then, in the IX, you sneezed and switched 2 lanes on the freeway. It was nice but a bit of overkill if you ask me.

The big difference you will notice with the Z is how solid the steering/turning is over that of the Evo. The car feels 10X more solid and frankly because it is (without sacrificing weight). I mean let's face it... An Evo is just a Prancer with a turbo and bigger brakes. And like I said, I loved mine to death but it was time to grow up.

I've come to realize that tape is for sissys. :rofl2:
However, given the amount of crap that happened to the front of my Z, it might just get a little tape next time out. ;)

I took a big step down in speed, but it was completely worth it. I love this car. Welcome aboard!

sorry to hijack this thread...

I am officially a 370z owner as of xmas eve... lol
traded my beloved 06 Evo 9 MR for a Monterrey Blue with Touring/Nav/Sports package 6 speed and couldnt be any happier...

Just my observation... The Evo is faster and handled better, or may be it feels that way. The 370z was a lot quieter and smoother, and very solid! Alot of creature comforts on the Z that wasnt on the evo...

I will make a thread for my pictures soon... anyone who is looking to move to a 370z is going to be happy, unless you just want boost and going fast... you can do that too in the Z.

That's AWESOME man! Please make a thread with new pictures (and old pictures of the EVO MR) . How's the SynchroRev match treating you? :driving: When I did my first downshift with SRM, my face went like this :eek:. Z is just a fun car with cool gadgets, beautiful exterior design and great handling. :tup:
